Chapter - 48 : PYRO ORDER - III

---

The second person's laughter turned into a chilling, maniacal tone as he continued, "SAGE ORG, huh? Don't be fooled by the name 'Sage' in their organization. In fact, they are even more ruthless and treacherous than us. They cunningly allowed the massacre of the students, all to catch our fifth commander."

A sinister gleam flashed in the second person's eyes as he spoke, his anger intensifying at the mere mention of the SAGE ORG.

"They wanted to catch our fifth commander and get the information of the experiments that we have been doing for all these years." said the third person in anger.

Second person continued adding, "Those students and their families were mere pawns in their grand game. It sickens me to think how they manipulated events, all while hiding in the shadows, like the cowards they are."

Governor listened, a mixture of fear, anger, and realization washing over him. The true nature of the SAGE ORG was beginning to unveil itself, and it was darker and more malevolent than he had ever imagined.

The Governor looked at the second person, his eyes filled with a mix of frustration and curiosity, as he asked the question that lingered in his mind "Knowing that the SAGE ORG had planned to attack PYRO ORDER and our plan was exposed, why did the ORDER proceed with the execution? Why didn't we abort the plan to protect ourselves?"

"We found out that the 7th Sage of the SAGE ORG is planning to lead an attack on us," said the first person, sounding sad , "So we thought if we use this information, we can eliminate the 7th Sage and weaken their organization."

He further added , "We had a plan in which the 5th commander would be positioned upfront, and the 6th commander would stay hidden, waiting for the 7th Sage to attack us in Novuron City. Our intention was to ambush and eliminate the 7th Sage. However, we didn't anticipate that the 6th commander was the ultimate traitor, being a member of the SAGE ORG as their 5th Sage."

"Fortunately, our leader is intelligent, and only he, the 2nd, 3rd, and 5th commanders are aware of our actions," said the third person. However, a tinge of regret filled their voice as they continued, "Sadly, our 5th commander has lost their life."

Arthur, hidden in the bush, listened intently to their conversation. As he processed the information, he couldn't help but wonder why they didn't simply capture wild Pokémon instead of training the top 10 students for three years only to kill them and take their Pokémon.

There seemed to be more to their motives than met the eye. Arthur questioned whether they were trying to conceal something or if there was another underlying reason for their actions. The pieces of the puzzle began to form a larger, more complex picture in his mind.
